Rock Band and zombies… that’s a good Xbox Live Arcade combination for this week! The Walking Dead has been excellent so far, so $5 for another 2+ hours of zombie drama seems more than fair. There’s also another reason to bust out your Rock Band library too thanks to Rock Band Blitz.

Read on for the details and links to queue them both up.

Rock Band Blitz (1200 Microsoft Points)
Rock Band Blitz brings the excitement of a full band into your hands, transforming classic Rock Band gameplay into an addictive single player controller-based experience – no instruments needed! Compete with your friends on over 20 amazing new tracks, which are also instantly playable in Rock Band 3. Or add your own favorite music: Rock Band Blitz is compatible with the 3,500+ songs in the Rock Band library. With an endless combination of power-ups, instrument multipliers and more, Rock Band Blitz makes every song a replayable rock explosion! Not compatible with instrument controllers/Rock Band Pro upgrades.

The Walking Dead: Ep. 3 – Long Road Ahead (400 Microsoft Points)
Episode three of a five-part game series set in Robert Kirkman’s award-winning universe. Treachery within the group leads to a devastating series of events in the most emotionally turbulent episode to date! Will the tough choices you made in episodes one and two come back to haunt you or prove to be worthwhile decisions? Purchase of this DLC requires The Walking Dead – Episode 1: A New Day.
